Some of you may be following my build thread, but I decided to post a new thread concerning this issue so I can hopefully get some feedback and get the problem resolved ASAP. I am running the Mountaineer's auto computer with an m5r2 manual transmission and I have a few issues. 1. Unsteady...

The swap is finally underway! Donor Vehicle: 2000 Mercury Mountaineer 5.0L AWD My Ranger: 2000 3.0L, Manual 4X4 Regular Cab Goal of Swap: Instead of reusing the Mountaineer's transmission and transfer case, I am swapping in an M5ODR-2 and BW4406 from a 2000 F-150. If the 4406 doesn't fit...

Okay, so I am about to begin tearing my 5.0 mountaineer apart tomorrow in preparation for my swap and I have one final concern. I've heard about all the clearance issues with using a bw4406 in a ranger, but as far as I know they still fit it's just pretty tight. What I want to know is if there...

Does anyone know how long the m5od-r2 4X4 tranny is compared to the m50d-r1? And how much farther back in the engine bay the 5.0L sits in a 1998-2000 ranger? Also, how much longer/wider is the BW4406 transfer case than the BW1354? I'm trying to see if I can stuff a BW4406 under my regular cab...

I have most of the information I need for my swap, but I still have a few questions I would like to get cleared up before I begin. Here's what I'm planning to do: I have a 2000 Ranger XLT regular cab with the 3.0L engine and 4X4. I will be swapping the 5.0 from a 2000 explorer along with all...

I have a 2000 Ranger 4X4 with the 3.0L. I am going to swap in a v8 from a 2000 explorer sometime very soon. I would like to keep my truck as a manual and 4X4, so I am trying to decide what transmission/transfer case combo to go with. I have heard the T5 from a mustang is the easiest way to go...

I have a 2000 ranger (3.0L V6 Flex Fuel 4X4 5 speed manual) and I am trying to gather some information on doing an engine swap. I am planning on finding a re-manufactured 302 from a 2000 Explorer. I know mostly what modifications I need to make to my ranger in order to make this swap, but I...
